🌞SUMMER LOOK🌞


               🌞 Summer Look🌞

I created my summer look using products from; 
Lauren Brooke's Cosmetiques
May's BIRCHBOX
Eyes.Lips.Face Cosmetics 
L'oreal
Revlon 
Almay 
Maybelline
LA Colors 
Wet n Wild 
St. Ives 
Mac 
NYX 

1. Wash your face with your favorite face scrub; St. Ives *Apricot*


2. Moisturize skin base; Lauren Brooke Cosmetiques moisturizing serum (used the Kabuki brush to apply evenly



3. Conceal; I used Almay light-medium on my inner creases/under eyes and L.A. Colors on my T-Zone. 


4. Foundation; Lauren Brooke's Cosmetiques Warm No. 30 Creme Foundation (Applied with my MAC stippling brush) 


Here's a closer look at the texture: 


Creamy, but light and a nice tint! 


5. Eyebrows; (2) E.L.F Cosmetics brow brush & powder eye liner applicator & NYX brow gel and powder 


6. Eyes; (Pt. 1) Using the 'Desert Bloom' palette from Coastal Scents & my angled brush from E.L.F Cosmetics...

 
I applied Gold to the inner crease of my eye closer to my tear ducts/just below my water line. 
Using another brush from E.L.F Cosmetics I applied dark taupe on my eye lids, lightly angled. 

(Pt. 2) 

Using L'oreal Telescopic Mascara & Revlon COLORSTAY I drakened my eyes and created a wider look. 

7. Lips; Wet n' Wild Lip Liner, Modelco 'Get Naked' matte moisturized lipstick, brush from E.L.F. cosmetics (used to apply and blend lippy's) 


COMPLETE LOOK: 

I love my summer look and hope you like it too. Using these exact products I noticed a complete difference. My skin wasn't as oily as it would be using other products. 

#FunFact I didn't have to use a bronzer, nor did I use any blush to create this look. 

Thank you for reading!!!



1st BIRCHBOX


    I was very excited to receive my 1st subscription box. $1 only for my first box using a promotional code. 


1. TONI&GUY *Heat Protection Hair Mist*


 I've never found a reason to use any type of hair mist, but now that I reside in Georgia it will definitely be needed. My hair can use a bit of protection being I'm a lot closer to the sun than I was in PA. I love the scent, light, breezy. Not strong like the other salon products I'm familiar with! *WOULD BUY*

2. NAOBAY *Oxygenating Moisturizer* 

I am always in need of a moisturizer. I am always weary of putting certain things on my skin. Organic, unscented, hypoallergenic... As long as it does the trick. My skin is very sensitive. I have eczema and psoriasis. This may be a mini skin saver this summer. The smell isn't for my liking. I'm not a citrus lover.
*WOULDN'T BUY*

3. MODEL co. *LIPPY*

Color: *GET NAKED*
 I am always down for a nude LIPPY. I love this color. It's also a moisturizer, as well as a Matte lipstick. That's one reason to use it. I steer away from Matte lipsticks only because they do make your lips look very dry. I love this one, it also has a great smell. Smells like a new starburst flavor 😊 *WOULD BUY*

4. HARVEY PRINCE *hello conditioner*

This was the first product I used out of the 5 products in this box. I fell in love with the scent and then the texture of it was so light I put it right in my hair. Smells like a beachy-paradise hair product. I love tropical smells. *WILL BUY*

5. COASTALSCENTS *REVEAL3D*

Okay so I've been seeing Coastal Scents all over Instagram and the top beauty bloggers that I love use their products all the time. My favorite color on the palette is the gold and the dark taupe. *WILL BUY*

I will be posting a pic on my Instagram using the beauty products in this #BirchBox. Follow me @Roc_Loui


LAUREN BROOKE COSMETIQUES

Here is my big thank you to ❤️Lauren Brooke Cosmetiques❤️

I recently won a giveaway. I had to post my picture and share my skin tone. She chose skin tones; cool, neutral and warm. 

I am not familiar with this company and its foundation pigments... I also didn't want to assume my shades and as kind as she is (Lauren Brooke) *Follow her* https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1256248807&tsid=0.3993873093277216&source=typeahead she sent me samples of each tone. 

I only expected samples! This is the box I received below!!! 


 Lauren Brooke Cosmetiques label is too cute!!! Very welcoming!!!


I received; Finishing powder, Kabuki brush and my very FIRST  Beauty blender!!! (I was really excited about that!)


Along with the other products she included a moisturizing serum, very light and did not clog my pores! 


These are the samples which is all I expected to get from my win!!  
FROM Cool-Warm in order... 
No. 30-50 in COOL
No. 30-50 in NEUTRAL
No. 30-50 in WARM


I played around with the shades a bit and found that Warm No. 30 was my shade. 


She (Lauren Brooke) emailed me and instructed me to find my tone and that she would send me a full sized foundation. 

I have already received the email stating she's preparing it for me. 

Thank you so much 
I recommend these products 100%!! 

I also recommend you use a light coconut oil to remove your cosmetics. :)
